Defining a default controller for a folder in Codeigniter

Hey everyone, I have my Codeigniter controllers set up in a folder called employees. The issue is that I don't seem to know the best way to specify the default controller if only the folder is typed in the URL. For instance, I would like to be able to type in:

www.mysite.com/employees

and have it d开发者_运维百科efault to the personnel controller, instead of having to type in:

www.mysite.com/employees/personnel

Any ideas? Thanks.

How have you specified it in your routes.php? Have you tried with:

$route['default_controller'] = "personnel";

Simple - just add an "index()" function

class Employees extends CI_Controller
{
    public function index()
    {
        redirect ('employees/personnel');
    }

    public function personnel()
    {
        // your code here
    }
 }
